It’s quite astonishing to discover that Rick Wilhite has not yet released an album. As one of the leading figures of Detroit’s Music scene and one of techno’s most revered characters, it would only seem fit that after 20 years in the game, he had released an album or two.

However, Rick ‘ The Godson’ Wilhite is only now preparing for the release of his debut long player – coming out on Chicago favorite Still Music. Analogue Aquarium is a collection of mostly new, previously unreleased tracks of original production, and features collaborations with the likes ofTheo Parrish, Marcellus Pitman, Osunlade and of course the man with silkiest of vocals; Billy Paul.

Rick Wilhite is the man behind the epochal Vibes New & Rare Music record store in Detroit as well as being one of the founding members of the 3 Chairs.
